In a constantly changing economic and political environment, businesses are faced with a number of challenges. Ensuring your organisation has the right strategic plan will enable the success of your business. Our strategic planning process analyses key aspects of a business and develops strategies to maximise the potential for successful business growth. Key questions in the process include:

  1. What could be eliminated in the business which is not adding value or not profitable?
  2. What processes or services could be improved above industry benchmarks?
  3. What is the unique selling proposition (USP) for the business?

William Buck’s Corporate Finance team are highly experienced, with strong skills in strategic planning across a variety of privately owned and not-for-profit organisations. We developed the strategic business planning process outlined below.
